We can't thank Andrew and the team at King's Lynn for their dedication to their industry. The care and compassion taken to ensure mum had the send off we envisioned was exceptional.

James Drake 14th Oct 2024

Amazingly empathetic and professional staff. A special mention for Andrew who had the patience to listen and advise everytime I called.

  • 5 Michael Barrett 4th Oct 2024

    From the first contact with Thornalley our family received all the advice and guidance needed to plan for the funeral day.

    The help given to us planning the order of service, arranging flowers on the day, printing and layout of service sheets and arrangement of times and family to be
    taken to church was greatly appreciated.

    All staff we had contact with were friendly, considerate and made us feel comfortable and at ease.

    Kind regards,

    Nick, Michael, Paul

  • 5 Stephen Kemp 28th Sep 2024

    A very professional but personal business. Nothing is too much trouble with the attention to detail exceptional. A very personal touch is important and being kept up to date at every stage. Help is on hand especially on the day of the funeral and its comforting to know that you are in very good hands.

    An excellent service at a very trying and emotional time.

  • 5 Kelvin Colby 21st Sep 2024

    Everything on the day was spot on, what more could you ask for.very happy.

  • 5 Ruth Kerrison 20th Sep 2024

    From the moment we first contacted Thornalleys, our family was treated with great care and respect. Our thoughts and my Dad's wishes were listened to, and were brought together to ensure his service would be the wonderful celebration of his life that we had hoped for. Advice on aspects we were unsure of was clear and helpful, and communications were excellent throughout the whole process.
    Visiting my Dad in the chapel of rest gave us time with him before his service, and this was made so much easier knowing and seeing the great care and dignity with which he was treated.
    We can't thank the team at Thornalley's enough for making a very difficult time a little easier.

  • 5 Shirley Coulson 18th Sep 2024

  • 5 Denise McCallum 15th Sep 2024

    Ray, Andrew, Tracey and all the staff at Thornalley’s made our lives a little easier at a very difficult and emotional time, through their kindness, support and professionalism. 
    They immediately put us at ease and nothing was too much trouble.
    Would not hesitate to recommend.
